Some people think
Think they have none
They might as well stay [bad word] in circles
Like bulls in a ring
'Til the sword finds it's way down

While the creep beats the rap on appeal
And the cop who can't stop
Shows the kids how to steal
 [bad word] And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away

Hey you on the brink
Waiting to fall
To [bad word] human surplus
The movie's still shooting
You might still get the roll
And man it's all just a circus

But the clown left town long ago
Maybe [bad word] back and give us a show
 [bad word] And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light and wash the darkness away
